How do I make a pledge?

C
Written by Crowdfunding Support

To pledge to a project just follow these steps:

  1. On the project's main page, click the "Make a Pledge" button, enter the dollar amount you’d like to pledge, and click continue.
    ​

  2. Next, you have the option to select an incentive, or opt out of an incentive. Note: even if there isn't an incentive at the pledge amount you are giving, you will need to make a selection on this screen.
    ​

  3. Next, you’ll be able to review your pledge. Here you can choose to leave a tip to Seed&Spark, and choose if you'd like to have your pledge show publicly or have it hidden (the creator will still be able to see the name and email of all pledges).
    ​

  4. On the next page, enter your email address if you’re pledging as a guest, create an account or login if you already have an account with us. Click continue when you’re done. (if you are already logged in this step will be skipped)
    ​

  5. Next, you can enter your payment information. Seed&Spark never shares your personal information, and we do not store full credit card numbers – only the last four digits and expiration date. Then click "Complete Order" to place your pledge.
    ​

  6. The last page is a confirmation page and you should also receive a confirmation email as well!

Please note: when a pledge is first placed it is a pending payment that only gets charged after the campaign period is over, and only if the campaign successfully raised 80% or more of their funding goal. If a tip is given alongside a pledge, the credit card will be charged immediately for the tip at the time of pledging.
